The Supreme Sword Master

Chapter 143

It wasn’t long before Tang Ye’s actions in Southpeace City had been reported to the Capital City in the State of Jing by that guard leader, and the Vice City Governor of the Capital City, Liu Rong, was immediately infuriated. Not only had Tang Ye annihilated a clan in Southpeace City, but he’d even killed the City Governor of Southpeace City on the streets itself. This was utter contempt towards the laws of the Grand Qin Empire. Of course, most importantly, the City Governor of Southpeace City was his subordinate. So, he immediately sent someone to notify the Talisman Master’s Association branch in the state’s capital city, and he asked the Talisman Master’s Association to severely punish Tang Ye. When the officer in the branch investigated Tang Ye, and when he noticed that Tang Ye was Master Lin’s disciple, his intentions to arrest Tang Ye had instantly vanished. What a joke? Punish Master Lin’s disciple? Indeed, he had the authority to punish Tang Ye, but to offend Master Lin for the Liu Clan and a tiny little city governor that wasn’t related to him at all? There wasn’t anything wrong with his head! So, this officer started to play a game of ‘Taichi’. He said that Tang Ye wasn’t within his jurisdiction, and he asked Liu Rong to head to Rising Sun City. Liu Rong almost exploded with rage when the branch officer gave him such an excuse. However, he didn’t dare flare up to the members of the Talisman Master’s Association, but he was unwilling to let the matter go and leaving it unsettled. So, he headed to Rising Sun City to look for the officer there. However, Liu Rong had never expected that as soon as he spoke about the reason for his arrival, the expression of this officer immediately turned icy cold, and the officer even asked him to leave. “Sorry, I don’t have the authority to deal with Tang Ye. He’s directly managed by the headquarters in the Imperial Capital, so you have to go there.” This time, Liu Rong wasn’t infuriated. Since he was able to rise in the ranks to assume the position of Vice City Governor in a large city, he was naturally not an idiot. He knew that the origins of this Grade Four Talisman Master, Tang Ye, was definitely extraordinary. So, he immediately inquired about Tang Ye’s origins from the officer. “He’s Master Lin, Lin Shan’s, disciple!” As soon as he finished speaking, the officer walked back into his own room.When he heard these words, Liu Rong was stunned for a long time, and then he broke out in cold sweat. My God! I was actually trying to get Master Lin’s disciple punished? Am I courting death? Not to mention a Vice City Governor of a large city like him, even the Marquis that controlled all the troops in the State of Jing didn’t dare rashly offend Lin Shan. Yet he’d actually been going all around to look for someone to punish Tang Ye. This was no different than courting death. However, he couldn’t just forget this matter. After all, Tang Ye had killed the City Governor on the streets and annihilated a clan. If he didn’t pursue the matter, then the Grand Qin Empire would definitely not spare him, and if he did pursue the matter, then the members of the Talisman Master’s Association would definitely utilize their connections in the empire to deal with him. Moreover, he couldn’t push the matter to the person ranked above him like those beneath him had done because he was already that person at the top. Even though there was another true ruler of the State of Jing, he didn’t dare to push this matter to that person. Because he existed to deal with matters like this, and if he pushed it up to his superior, then it represented that there was no value in his existence. It was a problem to pursue the matter, and it was also a problem if he didn’t! After he left the Talisman Master’s Association, Liu Rong felt even more depressed and conflicted the more he thought about it. In the end, he couldn’t help but curse. “Motherfucker! A tiny little city governor like you and a lousy clan actually dared to look for trouble with Master Lin’s disciple! It doesn’t matter if all of you died, but don’t fucking implicate me as well! Do you think it’s easy for me to be a vice city governor?” Even though he cursed like this, Liu Rong still headed to the Talisman Master’s Association’s headquarters in the Capital City of Qin. This time, he didn’t say he wanted to punish Tang Ye, and he just described everything Tang Ye had done in Southpeace City. Of course, he didn’t exaggerate as well, and as soon as he finished speaking, he waited silently for Master Lin’s reply. After waiting for a long time, he raised his eyes to look because Master Lin still hadn’t spoken after so long, and he was almost immediately infuriated to the point of leaping up with rage. Because Master Lin had actually fallen asleep! Liu Rong forcefully endured his rage and said in a light voice, “Master Lin, about this matter....” “Ah....” Lin Shan opened his eyes and glanced at the surroundings, and then he rubbed his drowsy eyes and gazed at Liu Rong as he said with a puzzled expression, “You are?” Liu Rong’s eyelids twitched while a million curses surged through his heart. He took a deep breath and forcefully endured his rage before he described everything once more. After he heard Liu Rong, Lin Shan frowned and said, “That kid actually caused such huge trouble in Southpeace City. He’s truly a bastard! Don’t worry, I’ll absolutely not protect him, and I’ll personally bring him back here and teach him properly. How outrageous!” That’s all? Liu Rong was stunned, and then he said, “Master Lin, according to the laws of the empire....” Lin Shan suddenly stood up and said with slight anger, “Didn’t I say that I’ll punish him? What else do you want? Are you trying to get my disciple killed? Huh?” As he spoke, a strand of fiery red Profound Energy surged from his body, and he seemed like a volcano that was about to erupt. Liu Rong retreated repeatedly and said, “Master Lin, calm your rage. I didn’t mean that. I really didn’t. I just need to give my superiors an explanation!”
